'History will remember you as silent witnesses to a genocide you chose not to stop'.

Israel’s murder of the AJ journalists last night is part of a pattern of eliminating witnesses to the genocide. Israel is killing Palestinian journalists in record numbers. International journalists are banned. Even volunteer healthcare workers are increasingly denied entry.

Teachers, university staff, students and journalists gathered in Oxford today to call for an immediate end to the killing in Gaza. @OxfordUCU unfurled a banner bearing the names of 97 Gazan academics and professors who have been killed.

"Hundreds of current in-patients. Thousands of IDPs in the buildings and courtyard. Many people too sick or frail to leave. NICU full of neonates. Post-operative patients. The elderly, disabled and war wounded. Where will they go? They can’t move."

A volunteer doctor working in one of Gaza's remaining functional hospitals describes no longer being able to reach the hospital as the area is closed in on by Israeli forces.
